Take That announce last 'Progressed' single

Take That have announced the last single to be released from their 'Progressed' album, 'When We Were Young'

Take That have announced their latest single 'When We Were Young'.

The ballad - the last track to be released from the group's 'Progressed' album - is the theme song to upcoming film 'The Three Musketeers', inspired by a private screening of the film the group had with its director Paul W. S. Anderson.

Singer Gary Barlow said: "The film is visually so rich and beautiful that our main challenge was to then match it musically. We've returned to guitars, real pianos and a conventional song structure to achieve this. We also thought that the Musketeers reminded us of ourselves."

The band - which also includes Mark Owen, Howard Donald, Jason Orange and Robbie Williams - are currently on their Progress Live 2011 tour of Europe, but Mark has said they have already started working on songs for another album.

He said: "We've done a few new tracks that over the last year we've been working on."

Whether any future releases will feature Robbie - who returned to the band in 2010, after originally quitting in 1995 - has not been confirmed however, as he wrote a blog post earlier this week saying he has "solo stuff still to do".

He wrote: "Is there a future with Take That? Well I want to do again. It's been too much fun to put it to one side and say never.

"But I have solo stuff still to do. When the boys want me back I'll be there."

The prototype boy band have re-lit their own fire and returned to cash in those nostalgia dollars, and have proved far more credible than any of us could have imagined. Now reduced to a three-piece as Jason Orange bows out but Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald soldier on.
